Replying to Why the hell do powder skis cost so much....
so hear me out, look at the '05 K2 Made'n AK and the '05 Public Enemys. The construction is the same, same ptex, same abs sidewalls, same triaxil braded core. Pretty much the same ski, only the Made'n is 1 inch wider, but the same material. But for 300 dollars more? Why? It is only about 10 bucks worth of product that they are adding, yet it costs twice the price. Remeber why k2 is a leader in the market? Cheap park skis that work, like the fujative and the PE. So if the Made'ns were only 400 bucks, or 450, they would sell so much more of them, since there would be no demand for the more expensive skis. Why not?
